Israeli startup Total Boox, proposes a revolutionary pay-as-you-go approach. With
Total Boox, you can download as many books as you like and pay only for the exact
number of pages you read. If you read the whole book, you don’t pay any more than
you would if you’d bought it up front. Abandon a book after page 27, and you only
pay for that portion. Total Boox tracks how long you linger on a particular page. If it
looks like you’re really reading and not just skimming through to see if you’re
interested in the book, the app charges you just for those pages.

The TV Format Fund aims to capitalize
on the recent success of Israeli television
shows such as spy thriller "Homeland" in
Hollywood by investing $55 million in
new formats created in Israel and selling
them abroad. New TV format is less risky
than investing in a tech start-up since far
less money is needed and the time to
market is much faster. We can return
60-100 percent of the investment from
selling options and the big money is to
be made in royalties from broadcasts of
the show.
Thanks to Dip-Tech, Israeli company's unique ceramic digital glass printing
solution, architects around the world are giving the urban environment an arty

durable ceramic inks to digitally transfer any image onto panes of glass and in
the process turn every building into a possible canvas. Glass Walls of Norway
